A free Restaurant Sustainability Guide
At SkipTheDishes, we’re committed to making a positive impact - especially when it comes to sustainability in the food service industry. That's why we’ve developed a free, simple Sustainability Guide for our restaurant partners to help them find the recipe for a greener future.
Why sustainably run restaurants are important
Did you know around 50 billion tonnes of CO2 equivalent is produced globally - and 1/3 of these global CO2 emissions come from food production? When we consider there are currently over 45,000 SkipTheDishes restaurant partners, we realise just how much our choices matter.
We know our partners are already making changes and embracing environmentally friendly restaurant practices. But if every partner takes just one more action from our guide, then that’s a huge impact on our planet.
Empowering green practices in restaurants
The free Sustainability Guide aims to help our partners become more sustainable, while helping drive business and save costs too. It provides clear recommendations and changes across all parts of the business.
Low carbon menus
The restaurant menu can have a big environmental impact. Did you know that a plant-based burger can have up to 90% fewer emissions compared to a regular beef burger? Our guide encourages partners to make carbon-friendly choices clear and accessible.
Sustainable packaging
In Canada, plastic packaging accounts for nearly half of all waste heading to landfill. Our guide gives partners clear alternatives to tackle the issue.
Green Operations
Improving the sustainability of the restaurant facility through LED lights, energy efficient appliances and staff training is good for the planet and good for business as it can help drive down emissions and costs in the long term.
